Permissions are based on endpoints for pages within BlueCat Gateway. When Gateway administrators assign a specific permission to a user group, members of that group get access to that endpoint. You edit permissions on the Permissions page.

For example, the SSO configuration page has the endpoint (IP address)/configs/sso_configuration. When you assign the sso_configuration permission to the user group mygroup, then members of mygroup can view the SSO configuration page and edit its settings.

To configure workflow permissions from the BlueCat Gateway UI:

  1. Open the Permissions page. (Click Settings at the bottom of the navigator on the left, then click Permissions.)

    Gateway displays the a table of permissions (endpoint names), listing the Workflow they're associated with and the user groups to which they're assigned. To sort the list, click the column header of the field by which you want to sort.

  2. In the table of permissions, click the Edit button on the row of the permission that you want to assign. (Or click the user group to view its details, then click Edit in the lower right corner.)

    Tip: To filter the list by group name or landing page, enter a search term in the Search box above the list.

    Gateway opens an Edit window for the group.

  3. Edit the list of user groups assigned to the permission as desired.

    To add a new user group:

    • Enter the name of the user group (or the value of the BlueCat UDF) to which you want to give access in the User groups field. Then, click the plus (+) symbol that appears to the right (or press Enter).

    To remove a user group from the list:

    • Click the X next to the group name in the list under User groups.

    All members of groups in the list will have that permission and be able to access that endpoint (workflow).

  4. When you're done, click Save.

    To cancel your changes, click Cancel instead.

    Note: You must log out and log back in for the changes to apply.
